Chapter 675: How Much Do You Know About the Imperial City?_1

~5 min read 905 words

After a while, Sir Du tried to stand up from the chair.

He didn’t feel the slightest bit of abnormality.

"It’s done! Sir Qu, it seems I really am cured!"

Sir Du looked at Old Doctor Qu with incredible surprise.

Old Doctor Qu also said with a chuckle, "I told you, this young man’s medical skills are not inferior to mine. If he takes action, you’ll definitely be fine."

Sir Du then turned his head and looked at Yin Tian, and actually gave Yin Tian a deep bow, "Young friend, I sincerely apologize to you for my previous actions and words."

Yin Tian waved his hand dismissively, "Just don’t let my family fall to a fifth-rate status."

Sir Du was startled and then chuckled awkwardly, without saying a word.

After a moment, Sir Du turned to face everyone and broke the silence, "Ladies and gentlemen, I have called you all here because there is something I wish to discuss with you."

"It’s been said that numerous forces are looking to settle in Central City, and a large number of Heretic Feng Shui Masters have secretly infiltrated. I need you all to be highly vigilant. No matter the forces or Heretic Feng Shui Masters, if they make any moves, you must keep a close eye on them."

"Especially now, among the forces looking to settle in Central City, some could be directly classified as first-rate families. When that time comes, some of your families might be pushed out, so you had better look out for yourselves."

Upon these words, everyone’s face took on a grave expression.

Over the years, within Central City, those clans below the quasi first-rate families are often replaced, but those that stand at the pinnacle as first-rate families can prosper for many years.

But now, were there actually forces capable of threatening their status about to enter the scene?

"Sir Du, if that’s the case, what should we do?"

A Family Head inquired.

"Fight."

Sir Du stated indifferently, "If you can win, then fight. If you can’t win, then you can only step down and yield."

"Surely the Imperial City won’t just stand by and watch Central City be torn apart in a fight?"

"Dynastic changes are normal; you are merely individual families. Do you really think you can prosper indefinitely?"

Sir Du snorted coldly, then took out a token from his bosom.

The token was made of pure gold and engraved with intricate patterns with the character "Du" written flamboyantly on it.

He handed the token directly to Yin Tian, "Young friend, you saved my life, and I can’t repay you enough. This token is a symbol of the Du Family’s trust. If any family is foolish enough to trouble you, show them this token."

"I believe those forces would not dare to challenge you further."

Everyone: "..."

Sir Du had just finished saying that dynastic changes are normal, and individual families could not prosper indefinitely, but then he immediately took out such a token to give to Yin Tian?

Such a blatant act of favoritism!

Yin Tian did not refuse and stretched out his hand, taking the token from Sir Du, "If that’s the case, thank you."

"If there’s anything you need in the future, just look for me."

Sir Du extended his hand, patting Yin Tian’s shoulder, "The Du Family of the Imperial City will always be there for you to rely on!"

Yin Tian cracked a smile but said nothing more.

He was very confident in his heart; with his own strength, regardless of how many forces settled in Central City, they wouldn’t affect him in the slightest.

But with the Du Family’s connection, he wouldn’t need to reveal his hidden power.

"All right, I’ve said all that needs to be said, so you may leave for now."

Sir Du gestured dismissively, and directly walked out in front of everyone’s gaze.

Soon after Sir Du left, Old Doctor Qu approached Yin Tian, "Young friend, care to join me for a drink at my place?"

Yin Tian knew Old Doctor Qu had something to say to him and immediately nodded, "Then I will gladly accept your invitation."

The two left side by side, leaving the still somewhat stunned crowd behind...

Old Doctor Qu drove, bringing Yin Tian to his home.

The home of Old Doctor Qu wasn’t very large; past the main gate, there were only three modest rooms.

Upon entering the courtyard, they were greeted by a strong medicinal fragrance.

Yin Tian looked around and nodded slowly, "Old Doctor Qu has collected quite a few fine things."

"They’re just some odd little trinkets. Compared to your Fusang Tree box, they truly aren’t comparable," Old Doctor Qu cheerfully remarked.

Yin Tian shook his head with a chuckle, "You flatter me, Old Doctor Qu."

The two entered the small house.

The interior of the house was tidy and empty; there was nothing more than a bed and a table.

"Please, have a seat."

Old Doctor Qu invited Yin Tian to sit and poured him a glass of water, "My home is simple, and I don’t have any fine tea. Please make do."

Yin Tian took the cup, drank a sip, and then looked at Old Doctor Qu, "Old Doctor, whatever you wish to say, just speak frankly."

"You’re rather impatient, young man,"

Old Doctor Qu teased with a smile, then became serious.

"How much do you know about Imperial City?"
